The image of the Little Prince came to Saint-Exupéry during a difficult time, when the writer himself found himself far from home and completely alone. He called his hero "a friend I carry in my heart" and gave him the best memories of childhood—and of love, beautiful and cruel, like a graceful rose. This edition is part of the beloved "Eternal Stories" series.
"All adults were children first, only few remember it..." Everyone knows the plot of this story. A plane crashes in the middle of the desert, and the pilot has only a few supplies left to wait for help. One dawn, he is awakened by a boy with golden hair... Where did he come from? And how amazing are the stories he tells!
The story of the Little Prince is multilayered. Touching. Healing. It seems to contain something greater than ourselves. Saint-Exupéry explores themes of friendship, loneliness, love, and loss. And what all this ultimately means—each person decides for themselves.
"Your rose is so dear to you because you devoted all your days to it. People have forgotten this truth, but don't forget: you are forever responsible for all you have tamed..."
The book also includes the essay "Planet of the People," dedicated to the pilot Henri Guillaumet. Both works are presented in Nora Gal's canonical translation: she once gave it as a gift to friends, but it turned out to be for all of us.
